Guinea pig shivering

[Connor123]

So lately I’ve noticed my Guinea pig shivers a little bit when I am holding her. I don’t know what this means so I’m asking here. My house is at 71°F so I’m not sure if it’s too cold? Let me know what you think.

It could be her rumbling in displeasure.My guiseppe rumbles and vibrates when I get him out sometimes even when I've gave him nice food.

Both my guinea pigs when young and were new to me, would shiver when handled. If its this then its just fear. They get over it in time.

71F is 21degrees . 15 degrees minimum is ok for guinea pigs. So your fine with the temperature. I think over 28 is when its too hot. But I'm not sure on the max
